I am not sure if my theories are correct. But possibly WebDAV access can be handy here. The document loaded through the WebDAV from the repository would always be the latest and you should be able to save it after modification. The possible probelm with this approach here is that you might end up with numerous revisions for a small editing session. Each save from the webdav front end would result into a commit. > > > Are there any other tools out there that would be better suited for > > my needs? > > Subversion and your text editor? > > -- > Jordi -- Purnank Harjivanbhai Ghumalia
